"Disfigured
For Life"
Is the despairing cry of thousands
afflicted, with
Unsightly skin diseases.
Do you realise what this disfigura
tion means to sensitive souls ?
It means isolation, seclusion.
It is a bar to social and business success.
Do you wonder that despair seizes
upon these sufferers when
Doctors fail,
Standard remedies fail,
And nostrums prove worse than use
less? Skin diseases are most obstinate to
cure or even relieve.
It is an easy matter to claim to cure
them, but quite another thing to
do so.
CUTICURA REMEDIES
Have earned the right to be called
Skin Specifics,
Because for years they have met
with most remarkable success.
There are cases that they cannot cure,
but they are few indeed.
It is no long-drawn-out, expensive
experiment.
25c. invested in a cake of
CUTICURA SOAP
Will prove more convincing than
a page of advertisement.
In short
Cuticura works wonders,
And its cures are simply marvellous.

chases. This week we will try and
interest the Ladies with Center
Tables at One-third less than former
prices. They will be displayed in
our large show window with prices
on each. A Table of this descrip
tion can be used in numbers, as
every room in the house should
possess one. They are as handy as
a shelf or mantel, and decidedly
more ornamental. Look up your
spaces and come THIS WEEK
and select a Table.

And Odd Pairs of Lace and Chenille
